Outer Wilds - Blind Longplay

This is the only video I've made that I don't want you to watch. Outer Wilds is an incredible time-looping atmospheric spacefaring adventure where the world is at stake, and you'll only be able to experience it once. The game doesn't explain anything else, so I won't either. Go play the game.

The two Questions every Outer wilds players asks themselves at some point:
1. Where is my Ship?
2. Why is my Ship THERE?

[livewiki]

10 Universal Outer Wilds experiences:
1. Auto Pilot takes you into the sun
2. Try to brute force the ghost matter
3. "How did my ship get THERE?"
4. "I wonder if I can outrun the Supernova?"
5. "I wonder if I can land at the sun station?"
6. "oh THATS how you get into Ash Twin"
7. Terrified of Dark Bramble
8. Existential Crisis
9. Questions the meaning of life
10. Cries at the ending

Honorable meantion:
11. Tells all your friends they HAVE to try this game, but struggle to convince them without spoiling anything

It's fascinating to see what people do and don't pick up on...
And leaving your ship without your suit on is a rite of passage.

> Goes to ash twin
> lands next to the landing pad
> spends the entire loop trying to discern its purpose
outer wilds moment of all time

[ChronicallyClementyne]

The irony of this being the most feldspar of playthroughs but Thor never finding feldspar tickles me

[Deadgye]

Notices the sun is going to go supernova 1m before it does on the first loop. Spends the entire second loop watching sand decrease.
Definitely unique from all the other playthroughs I've seen.

[easyicesack]

The amount of times he says “I understand now” and 100% does not understand at all 😂 love it

[DragonaxFilms]

"Wait, the sun looks different."

I love seeing people play this game for the first time. It's such a magical thing to witness.

[JiottoCaspita]

*holds W for 3 minutes in a vacuum*
*holds S for 30 seconds*
"WHY IS MY SHIP GOING SO FAST"

[BlacksheepSwing]

This game is the most viscerally upsetting and absolutely beautiful work of art I have ever witnessed. I can’t put into words how hard this game makes me cry in dread and smile I’m absolute joy, it’s awful and gross and unique and absolutely beautiful and amazing.

[Felix-kdtn]

There's another youtuber who collects supercuts of blind Outer Wilds playthroughs- you've done their job for them!
This game has a Serious Cult Following for blind playthroughs because we all crave that first playthrough feeling again.

[ghostrunner]

This guy figured out the quantum moon pretty much by pure intuition and also couldn’t figure out that he could take pictures for like 20 minutes. Incredible lol.

[RyzenCat]

I love how "the song" makes everyone so much more vigilant and on edge the first time they hear it

[Eightstrings_D]

One thing that annoyed me was Thor constantly referring to the physics as "buttery" when really they just apply newton's 1st law of motion which for some reason he never grasped

[alloutpotato]

Of all the places the SUNLESS CITY would be, the structure rotating 5 ft from the sun is definitely a wild take

[redopz]

10:59:00 I have heard devs lament about how hard it can be to get players to look up, but I didn't truly understand the struggle until this part. A bunch of skeletons staring at a fixed point up high, literally pointing to the spot, and he starts counting fingers before he turns his head upwards.

Edit: fixed timestamp

[Nick-kdpk]

This guy kept solving the most complicated puzzles like is was nothing, yet struggling with the simplest things and features throughout the whole thing. Finished the whole game in one stream too. Definately one of the more unique playthroughs.

[fivetwoeighty]

I love the progression from 1:12:30 to 1:13:30
In only a minute, he goes from "wait what did I do wrong?" to "okay bet"
This game is so good

[SBBurzmali]

Thor's got to be the first Outer Wilds player to wake up every cycle looking at the probe cannon and went "nah, not interested".

[CableKnot]

4:12:28 Deep tough with the eyes in direction of his phone
4:12:31 Grab the phone
4:12:33 Read his phone
4:12:38 "Image of a quantum object"
4:12:46 Struggle to understand the enigma
4:12:52 Look at his phone
4:12:54 Some talks about him not reading comments blablabla...
4:13:10 More phone looking
4:13:25 Always the phone
4:14:05 Drop the phone
4:14:11 Intense thinking about the enigma...
4:14:20 "I'm going back there"
4:15:20 Suddenly, a brilliant idea appears !

Just facts...
Btw, this comment will be remove soon.
